Must I have an agent if I want to be published? How do I get an agent? What will it cost me, and is it worth it? Just what will the agent do for me? Michael Legat answers these and many other questions in this book, which should be of interest to all authors who are trying to break into print, and also to established writers who are wondering whether to use an agent in future. The book contains a mass of information, from a brief history of the literary agency business to an account of how agents operate, from the author's obligations towards the agents to what the publishers think about agents. It is completed by a list of literary agents, giving full details, including their charges, their special interests and their requirements from would-be clients.
